The answer is a qualified YES. I am unfamiliar with “Ecogel” but must assume it is a gum-derived hydrocolloid? On another note: why make all these slurries and pre-gels? It baffles me why so many formulators do this. Simply change the order of addition and use the right mixing equipment and that technique is never needed again. Direct hydration into water, one at a time, side-sweep agitation engaging when the yield value increases. Much easier.

Because it prevents clumps if you do it at home with no special equipment? In my humble experience it works at least for Xanthan gum
